Intervention

The king's taken back the throne

The useless seed is sown

When they say they're cuttin' off the phone

I'll tell 'em you're not home

No place to hide

You were fightin' as a soldier on their side

You're still a soldier in your mind

But nothing's on the line

You say it's money that we need

As if we're only mouths to feed

I know no matter what you say

There's some debts you'll never pay

Working for the church while your family dies

You take what they give you and you keep it inside

Every spark of friendship and love will die without a home

Hear the soldier groan, "We'll go at it alone"

I can taste the fear

Lift me up and take me outta here

Don't wanna fight, don't wanna die, just wanna hear you cry

Who's gonna throw the very first stone?

Oh, who's gonna reset the bone?

Walkin' with your head in a sling, want to hear the soldier sing

Workin' for the church while my family dies

Your little baby sister's gonna lose her mind

Every spark of friendship and love will die without a home

Hear the soldier groan, we'll go at it alone

I can taste your fear (Taste your fear)

It's gonna lift you up and take you outta here (Take you outta here)

And the bone shall never heal, I care not if you kneel

We can't find you now (We can't find you now)

But they're gonna get their money back somehow

(Gonna get their money back somehow)

And when you finally disappear, we'll just say you were never here

Been working for the church while your life falls apart

(Your life, it falls apart)

Been singin' hallelujah with a fear in your heart

(The fear is in your heart)

Every spark of friendship and love will die without a home

Hear the soldier groan, "We'll go at it alone"

Hear the soldier groan, "We'll go at it alone"
